Mitchell Johnson believes Australia will be able to overcome the loss of fellow pace bowler Ryan Harris in their series with Pakistan.

Harris has been ruled out of the remainder of Australia's tour with a knee injury suffered in a 42-run win in the fifth and final one-day international against England at Lord's on Saturday.

That means the 30-year-old will miss the two Twenty20 internationals against Pakistan at Edgbaston here on Monday and Tuesday and the teams' subsequent two Tests at Lord's and Headingley.

The matches being played in England because of concerns about the security situation in Pakistan.

Australia arrived in England without pacemen Brett Lee, Ben Hilfenhaus and Peter Siddle, as well as Johnson, who missed the one-dayers against England with an infected elbow.

But Johnson is now fit to resume and with Shaun Tait, only drafted into the tour after off-spinner Nathan Hauritz was ruled out with a foot injury, having hit the 100mph mark at Lord's, Doug Bollinger in good form and teenager Josh Hazlewood also featuring against England, Australia have several pace options.

"We've got a good bunch that have been able to rotate in and out of the side, whether it's an injury or not, they've been able to rotate very well," Johnson told reporters here on Sunday.

"Maybe it's taken one game to gel back as a group again, but looking for the future we have a pretty good squad at the moment.

"Losing a player, another player can come back in like Ben Hilfenhaus. Josh Hazlewood had a crack this one-day series and it just shows the depth we have in Australian cricket.

"There's always been talk about the (Glenn) McGrath-(Shane) Warne era. I think we've really started to make a stamp on how we perform as a group.

"We're not trying to go out there and be those guys, we're just trying to do the best we can and play good cricket for Australia and win games. We don't look to be intimidated by those big names before us.

"We've just got to go out there and make a name for ourselves and I think we're doing a really good job at the moment."

Monday's match will be the first time the teams have met since their extraordinary World Twenty20 semi-final in St Lucia in May where Australia came from behind to win before losing to England in the final.

Johnson was at the other end as Michael Hussey, with an unbeaten 60 off 24 balls including 18 off the last over, saw Australia home against a Pakistan side still dealing with the fall-out from a wretched tour 'Down Under' where they failed to win a single international match.

Several Pakistan players were either banned or fined as a result of what went on in Australia before Shahid Afridi emerged as the captain of the side across all formats.

Afridi allayed concerns over a side injury with a typically dashing 42 off 14 balls in Pakistan's final warm-up match, a six-wicket Twenty20 win over Northamptonshire on Saturday.

Australia Twenty20 captain Michael Clarke (Test skipper Ricky Ponting has long since retired from international cricket's shortest format) is expected to be fit after a back injury ruled him out of the fifth one-dayer at Lord's.
